News Osasuna vs Madrid Team News
The defensive absent from Real Madrid were well documented before visiting City, with David Alaba, Antonio Rudiger, Eder Militao, Dani Carvajal and Lucas Vazquez All Out.
“They improve,” said manager Carlo Ancelotti about Alaba and Rudiger. “They will continue to work individually until Monday.
“From Tuesday, they will be back with the team and available for the [return home] game [against] City [on Wednesday]And the same goes for Lucas Vazquez. “”
Federico Valverde – Generally a midfielder – will continue at the back until Vazquez returns. “”[He] offers us a lot in this position, as it does elsewhere, ”said Ancelotti. “I really liked the way he played against City and he likes this position.”
Enzo Boyomo scored Osasuna’s equalizer in the 94th minute in his 1-1 draw in Majorca at La Liga on Monday, but the fifth yellow card of the central defender’s campaign means that he is suspended against Madrid.
Stronger Raul Garcia, who had appeared in 21 of the 22 previous Osasuna championship matches this season, is a doubt after missing the trip to Mallorca by an injury.
“It couldn’t be more exciting,” said Osasuna director Vicente Moreno. “We are talking about a high -level match in every way. I understand that this is one of these games that you are marking on the calendar for our fans because of everything it represents and its impact.
“We will appreciate it while being fully aware that it will be a difficult match. I don’t know if I should say [Madrid are] The best team in the world or one of the best – not because I say it, but because of what it achieves year after year. This makes it a difficult challenge, and we have to play this game together. »»
